If you haven't already, its time to take the Cleveland Cavaliers seriously. They are six games above .500, are 3-1 on their current Western Conference road trip and have a long, versatile front court that has given opponents fits,. The SA Spurs are in a free fall at the moment. The Spurs struggles are due both to a depleted roster due to COVID.

In the Cavs' last four games, their opponents are scoring just 99 points per contest. This is a trend that is growing from last year's team.

San Antonio is just 29th in the NBA in 3pt field goals so they will undoubtedly try and get to the rim vs. Cleveland. Allen and Mobley will make life difficult for Spurs' players attacking the rim. Another large factor in this game is San Antonio's roster, which is still depleted due to COVID-19 issues. Cleveland, despite the recent loss of Ricky Rubio, comes in healthy and with a day of rest since the win over Utah. Take the Cavs here on Friday night!
